THE WEARY WATCHED.

THE WEARY "AICHE
BY NJ. NJ. E. NJ.
She watched through all the Midnight weary,
Through all the night so dark and dreary,
All needless of the furious storm
That laShed against her fragile form.
She only sighed ''why do they tarry,
My noble Frank and brave son Harry;
Why do they linger Oh the sea,
why come they not to comfort me 2"
"Oh. lady, cease your vain complaining,
See how the waves the rocks are gaining:
Oh, listen to their wild wild roar
AS fierce they dash upon the shore!
List. lady. while whisper slowly,
And catch the words say so lowly-
No boat cOu.d live in such a storm,
Ills vain to watch here till the morn."
She answered not, her heart is breaking
The life-blood fast her lips fOrsaking-
When Hope, the comforter of pain
Restores her dropping form again.
For by their torches fitful burning
She sees boat to shore returning,
A boat that dashed from side to side
AS DER 1t broke the waters wide.
go lady home, your eyes deceive you,
Your staying here will only grieve YOU;
We men will wait the coming morn
And face alone the raging storm"
She heeds them not, across the ocean
Comes on the boat with swiftest motion;
Now high alOft it seems to rest,
Then buried deep in oceans bre:st.
hundred eager forms surround it
Ane tightly to the shore they bot nd it;
But not II sound is heard of joy,
In vain they search for man or boy.
The mornings dawn breaks cold and drearv.
And those who watched are worn aud weary.
And some steal home te rest and sleep,
But still she waits her watch to keep.
At last across the heaving ocean
Comes what repays her nights devotion;
Locked arm in arm and cold in death,
The bravest two that e'er drew breaht.
They raised them up, those strong men, weeping
And gave them TO the lady's keeping
Then stepping soft with voices low
They passed from out the scene OF woe.

ELECTORAL VOTE COUNT.

The bill governing the counting OF the
electoral vote, having been signed by the
President, is now the law of the land. The
most important feature in the new law is
the denial to the President of the Senate oil
the right to count and declare the result OF
state elections for electors, q most danger
ous claim which was made unler the old
joint rule. Under this law the two houses
are to meet in joint convention as now pro-
vided for, on the first Wednesday in Febru-
airy after the election, with the President of
the Senate in the chair. His only duty,
however, is to open the returns and an
nounce them to the convention. Where
only n return has been made from any
state no objection can be made to the
counting of its vote, but where more than
n return has been received that which is
indorsed by the highest judicial authority
OF the state as the correct one will be
counted. In cases where there is more than
one return. but no decision by competent
tribunal, the n having the signature of
the Governor will be counted, and in cases
where the authority of both court and
Governor is questioned, it will require the
affirmative vote OF both houses of Congress
sitting separately to count tho return.
While the chances for a repetition of the
d~isgraceful scenes OF 1876 are greatly d.
minished, yet the contingency may arise
when n house Of Congress may have it in
lts power to defeat the will of the people by
agreeing with the other house in cases
where the authority OF both court and
is questioned. Under ordinary
circumstances, however, Congress, no mat
ter how constituted, will have nothing to
DO but to count the votes as it receives
them duly certified from the state.

POLICE COURT PICKINGs.
Police Magistrate Mediation HOLDS tne
Scales of Justice With IN
Even Hand.

Ou;te a number Of offenders were called
before the bar of justice yesterday n Judge
N1cHaAton,s court. At the afternoon
session two John Does were arraigned ior
beine drunk and d~isorderly. They were
fined SO q piece, with trimmings, and both
paid and were discharged.
One man scheduled as q drunk n dis
orderly, was given the privilege Of contrib
utipe five dollars to the city funds. which
act he gracefully performed and departed.
Tim Martin plead guilty to the accuse
ton OF carrying concealed weapons and
was fined ten dollars and costs. He paid
up and was dismissed.
LANES Mccarthy and Daniel Harrington
had q little difficulty in the Old Grow
saloon on Quartz street, the night before
last. They were summoned for yesterday
afternoon, but failed to be tried on account
of the absence of witnesses. In the evening
Judge Mediation decided that they had
committed assault and battery on each
other, and fined them ten dollars and
costs, which both paid. Thomas Hagan,
the witness who failed to appear, was
fined ten dollars for contempt of court. 10
default of payment, he was sent to Jail.
Walter O'Brien finished the calendar yes.
terday in Judge McHatton's court. He
was proven to have assaulted N battered
the complaining witness, Nick Ayers, in a
manner that required the payment of ten
dollars and costs to soothe the ruffied feel
ings of the law. The witness, Nick Ayers,
was fined twenty-five dollars for contempt
OF court, for refusing to answe questions.
O'Brien paid up, but Ayers is o Ian

SAN FRANCISCO DYNAMITERS.

The arrest Of the dynamiter Stiles in
San Francisco day before yesterday and
the finding OF a dynamite bomb thrown
away by him and the finding of explosive
materials upon his person, in connection
with the free use OF explosives in that city
during the past five weeks, indicates a
spirit which at any time may repeat in
that city the horror of the Chicago Hay
market. In bolstering up the cause of q
strike among car men dynamite wal used
with more or less serious results almost
every day for a fortnight, and an irrecon-
cilable is taken in the act OF attempting to
hurl a can OF powder at somebody in a
crowded theatcr. As Patti was the BRIGHT
particular star or this occasion it is init
mated that the fellow may have deter.
mined to take her life because she charged
too much for tickets to her farewell on.
certs, but a moro plausible theory is that
the culprit thought to blow up some of the
residents OF Mob Hill. who were present in
the boxes in force. Great wealth is no.
where in America more lavish in it's display
than in San Francisco, and with the dis.
satisfied elements of society once accus-
toned to the use OF explosives q malicious
Inc vengeful mind might easily conceive
the idea Of hurting a deadly missile in a
place like the Baldwin Opera House.
The story of Stiles is extremely attenua-
ted and will hardly 60 down with the peo-
pie OF the Golden Gate City, who are yet
incensed over the Baldwin, Theater affair,
and should it be found that he belongs to
the gang that are throwing these bombs
on car tracks and theaters he will find the
late awaiting him that now stares the
Chicago Anarchists in the face. Stiles,
Dean ct. al. will find San Francisco a very
unhealthy place in which to indulge in pro.
miscuous bomb throwing.

An Old Timer.

Salton Cameron is in Butte for q few days,
doing his customary rustling in behalf o!
the mining district west of Butte and Ana.
conda. He is an old timer and his word az
a miner has considerable weight, as he has
been connected with some of the best mines
in Montana in their early days. He was
one of tue first owners Of the famous
Cable mine, which takes very high rank
among the gold producers of the country.
Mr.. Cameron was also the owner of the
| Pyrenees mine at Georgetown before it
| passed into the hands of it's present "
ers, the consideration of the sale being
$50, 1000.
In conversation with a representative oil
The MINER. Mr.. Cameron stated that the
mining interests in the Georgetown district
from which he comes, are considerably in
terfered with by the present heavy fall Of
snow. None of the mines in the vicinity Of
Georgetown are developed to any great ex
tent, Inc consequently are liable to be
much hindered by heavy snow. There are
many good prospects in the vicinity on
which some work has been done, which
have now been abandoned for the winter
as the snow is three or four feet deep.
At present Mr.. Cameron's interests are
confined to the Dardanelles and Southern
Cross mines, both promising gold pros
about 100 feet. The Southern Cross at
present is bonded by parties in Helena,
supposed to represent foreign capitalists.
Cameron himself is conducting the develop
ment work in the D~ardanelles. No ore
is being treated but assays run away up.
The G~rubstake, owned in Butte, isIalso said
to be a very fine prospect. Mr.. Cameron
thinks that the Georgetown district will be
heard from in the spring.

The Oath Of Love-.

The Pyke Opera Company were greeted
with another crowded house last evening,
on which occasion Andran's latest and
most charming opera, 1.-THE Oath OF Love-
was presented. The company gave the
entire opera in the same faultless style as
was the previous evenings entertainment,
making it one Of the most enjoyable comic
though portraying a character more sul@
able to a man, left nothing to be desired
but which in some ladies' hands would
have fallen fat. But the manly bearing Of
Miss Winston, with which she seems par
ticularly gifted, kept the character on a
level with the authors intention, and thus
greatly pleased the very large audience.
Little Miss Manfred came in for no small
share of the honors. She has q taking
way and style particularly her own, and
which is bound to make her successful in
any character she may undertake. She is
charming and pretty, and is not to be
wondered why Miss Winston insists on
lingering upon lips SO sweet. At tt Les the
drawn out" tantalizingly so to the many
present who would readily have taken the
countess place.
Miss Evans again showed herself q thor
ough artistic, and was enthusiastically
applauded on the rendition of her songs.
Mr.. DeLange was, to say in the least, sim
ply immense. His part could not possibly,
in our mind, be played better. He took
the house by storm, and from beginning to
end kept the audience in roars of laughter.
Miss Norman appeared to excellent advan-
tage, as did also Mr.. Valerga and Mr..
Clark. The choruses were splendidly rem
dered and everything went off with clock
like precision. In q few words the opera
was a grand success. This evening the
ever popular "Chimes of Normandy" will
be given, Miss Winston appearing in the
character of "Germain," and no doubt
curiosity will be on tip-toe to see her in
female costume on the stage. Miss Man
fred will be the %Serpolette. MI. DeLange tho
Miser Gaspard, Mr.. Pyke the Marquis,
MI: Keen, Bali, Mr.. Valerga, Grenichaut,
and Mr.. Clark the Notary. A grand per-
Torrance of the Chimes NAV be expected.
